  • South Africa > Cape of Good Hope > Cape Town, St Mark > Baptisms 1849-1903. The browse point has a typographical error. The records are from 1894-1903 not 1849-1903.
  • South Africa > Cape of Good Hope > Kimberley, Barkly West, Klipdam and Windsorton > Marriages 1894-1903. This browse point has been mislabeled. They are baptism records not marriages.
  • South Africa > Cape of Good Hope > Kimberley, St. Cyprian > Marriage banns 1871-1937. The browse point name is misleading. The records start at 1910 and include records up to 1964. The records are not necessarily in chronological order.
